MUMBAI(The COW News Digital) Indian actor Priyanka Chopra has publicly addressed ongoing speculation about her marriage to American singer Nick Jonas, firmly dismissing rumors of a separation that have circulated in recent weeks.
In a recent interview cited by entertainment media, the 43-year-old actor spoke candidly about persistent gossip surrounding her relationship. Reports of a possible split had resurfaced, reigniting debate about the high-profile couple’s cross-cultural marriage.
Chopra said she has often struggled to understand why her marriage has attracted such sustained scrutiny. She suggested that the attention may stem from the couple’s differing cultural backgrounds, nationalities, and age gap — topics that drew significant commentary when they wed in 2018.

“At the time of our wedding, there was so much discussion about our countries, religions, cultures, and even our age difference,” she noted. “It was difficult at moments, but we chose to focus on our relationship rather than the noise around us.”
The couple married in December 2018 in elaborate ceremonies held in the Indian state of Rajasthan, blending Christian and Hindu traditions. Chopra was 36 at the time, while Jonas was 26, a detail that fueled widespread debate online and in entertainment circles.
Reflecting on their eight-year marriage, Chopra emphasized that external speculation does not define their bond. She said that if some individuals continue to predict the end of their relationship, that remains their personal viewpoint. “Everyone has the right to make their own choices and live life with the person they love,” she added.
Chopra also praised Jonas, describing him as sincere and grounded. She credited his upbringing and family values as qualities that resonate strongly with her. She revealed that when they first met, she had not anticipated how closely aligned their outlooks and personalities would be — a compatibility she believes has strengthened their marriage.
In January 2022, the couple welcomed their daughter, Malti Marie, further solidifying their family life. Despite periodic rumors, both have continued to share glimpses of their personal and professional milestones publicly.
Chopra’s remarks appear aimed at putting speculation to rest, reinforcing that their relationship remains intact and grounded in mutual respect and understanding.
